Here at Three Bears Nursery and Preschool we are supporting Changing Stars Malawi's Christmas Appeal.

You can pick up a beautiful handcrafted star decoration made from Malawian Chitenji, the bright, bold fabric woven into everyday life in Malawi. It represents strength, community and culture. They are handmade at the community hub in Cape Maclear in Malawi, each one supporting local families in the village. The hub's new team of sewers earned their first income by making these stars and so it's the charity's way of giving back to the women who trusted them with their first sewing project. The star, just like your generosity in donating, will last on your tree or in your home year after year!
